Office, advocacy institutions were also involved in the delegations,

by Vice-Chairwoman of Council of Europe Mrs Bukikio.
As Noyan Tapan correspondent was informed by Lana Mshetsian, the
Spokesperson of the RA Minister of Justice, the Azeri side stated
in his speech that allegedly "the aggression carried out by Armenia
hinders the Azeri authorities to ensure supremacy of law." The Armenian
side provided detailed explanations, in particular, mentioning that
every time Azerbaijan tries to discredit its neighboring country
by misrepresenting facts at international conferences. According
to the head of Armenia's delegation, RA Minister of Justice Gevorg
Danielian, Azerbaijan committed not only aggressive actions, but also
gross violations of norms and principles of international law. In
particular, it is Azerbaijan that committed mass extermination of
people by the principle of ethnic belonging, Azerbaijan grossly
violated nation's right of self-determination. The RA Minister of
Justice said that now, when the two countries' Presidents undertake
serious steps in the direction of settling the conflict, Azeri side's
methods contribute to artificial aggravation of relations between the
nations and confirm that some forces of Azerbaijan are not interested
in a civilized settlement of the problem.
At the end of the discussion a decision was made that Azerbaijan's
point of view will be reflected in the final document of the conference
only as a special opinion, and by Armenia's insistence the above
mentioned special opinion of Armenia was also included in the document.
